Welcome to Arlia
While driving through the asteroid field of Arlia, you notice a light military vessel in the area. You sense many power levels. Many of them are much stronger a normal human but are nowhere near as powerful as yourself. Before you can investigate, the crew of this mysterious spaceship invades one of the settlements! Even more curious, is the fact that the crew includes many different races. Do you want to investigate these strange pirates?

Sonnelion was in the Harbinger, prowling through the asteroid field. He had the guns on the ship primed, no telling what he may encounter here. He flew about seeing settlements on the asteroids. He came across a light military ship in the area also prowling. He narrowed his eyes as he looked up from the ship radar to look at it. Only to see it attacking one of the settlements! He pressed a button to get a better camera view. He looked at the screen and saw...multiple races? He spotted changlings, Saiyans, yardrats, humans. He narrowed his eyes in realization.
He pressed a few more select buttons, namely getting the ship into stealth mode. He put on his mask and ran through the corridors using blink to get through faster. He arrived at one of the airlocks and left the ship, finally, he could use the mask as he originally wanted to. He flew full speed towards the pirates and stabbed into one, a changling which tried to spin him off but before he could Sonnelion tore him to shreds with ease. He turned quickly and used ki grapple on his sword and thus slashed and killed several of the pirates that are attacking the settlement.
Once he retracted his blade back to him and placed it on his back, he flew over and smashed into the light military craft which the pirates were using. He began fighting the pirates within the ship, punching and knocking out and killing several as he covertly tore them apart. He ran through the halls of the ship and stopped by the wall, having his back hug it as he looked over to the room he was about to enter. The room in question is the command center and it had several pirates including the pirate captain. His eyes widened as he looked at the captain, having never seen a pirate like this before. It was a red alien dragon of some kind.
The creature was barking out orders to the crew to try and find him. He wisely decided to not get caught and thus carefully walked through the halls using corridors to hide every now and then. He needed to get to the engine room. He silently took out pirates on patrol as he went. Eventually, he reached the engine room and found groups of pirates keeping track of the settings and such. Sonnelion found a computer and set up the self-destruct setting on the ship and set it off. After doing so he destroyed the CPU and fired blasts to destroy the engine. He quickly burst out of the ship landed on the colony asteroid. He saw the dragon leader of the ship fly out of it into the distance. The energy of it felt familiar to him somehow. He pondered why as he watched the ship blow up.
The Merchants of Arlia
Three extravagant space ships approach, piloted by wealthy people in regal. They introduce themselves as Merchants. They are the rulers of the three man-made planetoids. The merchants inform you that they have a piracy problem. They implore a fighter as strong as yourself to aid them. They promise you vast riches in exchange! Will you fight to protect these seemingly defenseless people, or be forced to defend yourself when the group is ambushed?

3 merchant ships showed up at the colony. Sonnelion walked over after dealing with the colonists' celebrations. He saw the merchants come out of the ships. He walked over to them and looked right at them. "Greetings, as you may notice, we are merchants. To be more specific, we are the leaders of these specific planetoids." He shook the yardrat merchant's hand. "I'm just a warrior that wandered in." is what Sonnelion introduced himself as he did not trust them. "I believe you noticed we have a bit of a problem with pirates yes?" Sonnelion nodded thus showing he knew. "I just took out one of their ships." he stated.
The merchants did not look surprised. "If you help us deal with the piracy issue, we will reward you accordingly Warrior." The Yardrat started trying to convince him. Sonnelion was rather suspicious of them, mainly as they did not introduce themselves by name. "And you'll hold to your word?" he asked with a serious tone making it clear he did not trust easily. But before the merchant could reply, a loud screeching roar was heard and Sonnelion had to turn as suddenly, on one of the tallest buildings in the colony was that Dragon that was leading the pirates! The Dragon stared right at Sonnelion and then flew off, and suddenly, Pirates attacked!
Sonnelion unleashed ki turrets to block the blasts that were aimed at the merchants. "Looks like I got no choice," he muttered as he fired at the pirates that had come out of nowhere, they were using cloaking technology! Sonnelion narrowed his eyes and threw his sword which stabbed into one of the pirates thus killing him. Sonnelion used his ki grapple to grip the sword and swung it to cut into the other pirates. He had to unleash more ki turrets as the ones he brought out earlier got destroyed by the pirates' ki blasts. "Damn Pirates," he growled annoyed with them.
He ran forward and stabbed a pirate through the gut, then used his body as a shield against the pirate's ki blasts which pretty much finished off the pirate he had stabbed. He threw the body of the dead pirate at the others then ran forward using the pirate's body as cover to get in close and then proceeded to slam the next four pirates into the ground. He then decapitated them and then used blink to get behind the last pirate. "boo." was all he said and thus the pirate ran the hell away terrified of Sonnelion after witnessing what happened to his comrades. He looked to where the pirate dragon flew off, what was that dragon, why did it seem to be leading that group of pirates?
Second Wave!
It seems like your enemies are reinforcing quickly, and are only getting stronger! What's worse is that they are now firing upon one of the man-made planets! This battle is a close one, and it is becoming clear that you cannot win without sacrifice. One of the Merchants is making a reckless charge in a last-ditch effort to save his assets. They will not survive.

Before he could contemplate further, he heard the same damn roar again! He turned and saw the dragon there, on top of one of the merchant ships. It was the ship belonging to the yardrat actually as the yardrat merchant noticed and began making a run for the ship. The dragon flew off the ship, and a few moments after, the ship exploded, killing the yardrat merchant in the process. Sonnelion glared at the dragon, pulling out his blade. "I don't know who you are Dragon, but you're starting to get on my nerves," he explained as he stared at the pirate dragon.
The dragon just lets out a cackle and swoops in doing a bombing attack, Sonnelion just dodges but uses his ki grapple to grab one of the exploding fireballs and throws the fireball at one of the pirate ships. The ship is thus destroyed as a result. The Dragon landed on another building but not before swooping in and picking up two people. Sonnelion glared at the dragon as he realized that the damn thing grabbed hostages, and by the looks of how the child in the building was looking, the hostages were parents.
Sonnelion growled and used blink to get right in the Dragon's face and upper cut the thing's jaw, thus knocking it upwards. Before the dragon could regain its balance Sonnelion used blink again to go above the beast and do an axe kick to knock it down, thus making it let go of the parents of the kid. He flew in and grabbed the 2 people and left them on top the building before going for the dragon again. The dragon used blink to dodge Sonnelion's blade and got behind him. The half saiyan back elbowed the dragon before it could grab him and then quickly turned to knock it down to the ground.
Sonnelion dropped to ground level and stared at the dragon which glared back at him. "You're the little monkey that destroyed my ship!" the dragon screeched in anger. Sonnelion wasn't phased at all, of course, the dragon could talk. The only question in Sonnelion's mind is what species classification is this thing? "And you're just a pathetic pirate, preying on helpless civilians and children." The dragon seemed to gain a dark look in its eyes. "well of course...how else would I get food?" Sonnelion glared at the dragon as it cackled. Sonnelion glowed and gained a gold aura and his eyes turned blue. The dragon stared at him and seemed to recognize him. "You're that little shit that I ran into on Yardrat..." the dragon stated before bursting into laughter and then showed an aura.
Sonnelion immediately understood and glared at the dragon in anger. This was the beast that escaped him on Yardrat! "Damn beast, what are you gonna do, escape again like a coward?" he insulted the dragon, making the dragon narrow its eyes in slight anger, but it regained its cool rather fast, and let out a dark chuckle. "don't you know? I've already won this battle." the dragon stated before snapping its fingers and thus 20 pirate ships showed up and began firing on the colony. Sonnelion glared at the dragon in rage but now had no choice but to focus on the other pirates.
Breather
You may have won this engagement, but your enemies are endless! The city has been ravaged. One of the Merchants is dead; if you don't come up with a plan quickly, Arlia as you know it will cease to exist. Will you save the day, or will you take the opportunity to swap sides?

Sonnelion had to dodge quickly as the dragon tried to stab him with his tail. He dodged the tail again, and again, then he blocked the claw of the dragon's hand by grabbing the wrist. He activated ki grapple, blinked 10 meters away, then used the ki grapple he attached to basically slam the dragon into one of the pirate ships before following up with firing tons of ki blasts around 3 of the ships. The dragon shot out of the ship he crashed into and fired a laser at Sonnelion. Sonnelion blocked by unleashing his chaos arms to catch the laser and then redirected it towards a third pirate ship. The combination of hell zone grenade and the redirected dragon laser destroyed 4 ships.
The dragon looked officially done with Sonnelion's shit at this point and flew at him with ki forming around the beast in what looked like a fireball. Sonnelion went ssj2 and grabbed the fireball encased dragon. He then tossed the dragon at another ship which blew up upon impact. Sonnelion glared at the dragon wondering just what the hell its name is, and what its origin planet is. The dragon came out again and looked absolutely pissed. "I'm gonna feast on your insides little monkey! I will Feast on your Children!" the dragon shouted in its rage as energy gathered in its mouth. The dragon then unleashed the energy in the form of a massive laser aimed at Sonnelion who decided to take advantage of the blast.
The half Saiyan flew about and directed the laser to basically blow up a half of the remaining ships. Only 8 pirate ships remained now. The dragon floats in the air and then flaps the wings fast, sending powerful winds into the artificial atmosphere which breaks several buildings as mailboxes and lamp posts are thrown around. Sonnelion just withstood it easily as he walked forward, making the dragon nervous. The beast fired another laser which Sonnelion just deflected to another ship. 7 pirate ships remain and the dragon held fast and strong against Sonnelion's assault. "This was supposed to be just a normal raid...but no, this guy had to show up today!" the dragon muttered to itself annoyed that his operation was being wrecked by the half Saiyan.
The Dragon charged forth and tried to slash at Sonnelion with its clawed hand, Sonnelion backflipped out of the way and fired blasts into the dragon's mouth just as it was about to use fire breath, thus knocking the dragon back and making it shake its head in anger and some pain. The Dragon rushed at Sonnelion who held his ground and grabbed the pirate leader's head and after a bit of struggle, tossed him to the side. Sonnelion watched as the Dragon got up and shook its head before glaring at him with rage in its eyes.
Sonnelion ran at the dragon fast before it could think to strike at him and jaw punched it, leading up to a kick, and then using ki grapple to grab it by the chest and throw it at an abandoned building. The dragon got up and shook its head, but then glared at the floating Sonnelion starting at him under that mask of his. The dragon after this day would come to despise that mask. Rubble picked up as the dragon's rage skyrocketed, the creature flew into the air and fired a massive laser at Sonnelion from its mouth.
Sonnelion smirked under his mask and took advantage of the laser, just like he did the last one. He flew and made the laser destroy all but 2 of the pirate ships all while subtly firing a bunch of ki blasts around the dragon. The dragon stopped once it realized it was destroying allied ships. Sonnelion used blink to get in the dragon's face again but before the dragon could land a claw on the Half Saiyan, Sonnelion managed a gut punch and then kicked the dragon in the chest which knocked the alien dragon out of the artificial atmosphere, thus knocking it into space.
Deal!?!?!
Your efforts have clearly changed the tide of the battle. This contribution is rewarded with a message from the other side. No matter how many times you've switched sides, they offer you a deal far beyond what is believable. Both sides are clearly loaded beyond belief, so it just might be possible. Do you trust these people?

Sonnelion turned and faced the alien pirate ships which were still attacking the city, but had clearly noticed that he had turned the tide of battle. Sonnelion got a message from both the pirates and the merchants. Were they both trying to bribe him? They truly are foolish, he doesn't trust either side, so he decided to just be his own side and fought to defend the civilians, the ones that had no power to fight back. He watched as both sides fought each other and just stood ready to defend the civilians if need be.
He decided to at least look at the offers though, looks like they were both trying to bribe him with tons of money. Thing is, he ain't that desperate. He blasted any pirates that tried to attack the civilians. He figured that he may just use the Harbinger to transport the civilians away from this place after the battle to the Razor Force moon base, least there he could give them shelter until they figure out a better living arrangement. So till then he just watched the battle and deflected any stray shots fired at the civilians in the mean time.
The End?
The battle is over, but at what cost? A ruler dead, and another injured. Out of nowhere, you see a pod coming. A Golden pod. As it closes in, you sense that this pod contains 200,000 PL. Stay and fight or run and leave. Goldy's 200k and he has no tolerance for weaklings. Another Merchant does not make it.
GO 3 Paragraphs OR STAY 4 Paragraphs and you must be 100k+
+400 PL OR 700 PL AND Secret Knowledge: Goldy
The battle was over, Sonnelion made sure no civilians got caught in the crossfire and got them on his ship, The Harbinger. He noticed one of the merchant ships leaving so he threw and landed a tracking chip on it so he'd be able to catch up with that guy later. The other Merchant stayed and so he and that guy were looking around the rubble. This merchant was a Namekian and is the most trustworthy of the group in all honesty. He and the Namekian merchant were trying to find any survivors to get to the Harbinger. He actually explained this to the guy to which the Namekian nodded in understanding.
Sonnelion and the Namekian sensed a presence headed their way. Sonnelion narrowed his eyes under his mask, he knows this signature. "Goldy..." he growled in anger. The Namekian looked surprised that Sonnelion knew who it was. "How do you know 'Emperor' Goldy?" the Namekian asked, Sonnelion looked at him. "So he's calling himself that now huh, figured he was gonna betray Ynrab, what with him killing me when I was just trying to negotiate peace." he spat showing his aura and causing the rubble to float. "calm yourself, boy." The Namekian told Sonnelion trying to contemplate the information, this man knows Goldy?! Goldy Killed this man?
Sonnelion took off his mask, showing just how utterly pissed he is right now. "Goldy...I've been wanting to meet him again," he growled out showing he held a great grudge against Goldy. The Namekian Merchant shook his head. "you must run, I'll hold him off, you're not ready for him yet" Sonnelion stared at the Namkian. "no, I must see this through." Sonnelion declared showing just how much he wanted his closure. He had to know, what happened to Azael. He wanted, no, needed, to know what happened to her after he died in that war.
Sonnelion stared as the pod came down, and crashed near them. Sonnelion had his hand on his blade, ready to fight if need be. The Gold pod opened, and the familiar face of Goldy came out. "Goldy, didn't expect to see me again did you," he asked with a slight growl. Goldy looked at him, and began to laugh "ah man what happened to yer face, was my power just that overwhelming to ya? what, not happy I made off with the bitch?" Sonnelion glared at him, his power flaring which showed his anger, he brought his blade out and pointed it. "I declare Nex Sacramentum. I, Sonnelion will have revenge." he learned the words and meaning from the Visions in his mind. The voice in his mind spoke as well *this is the guy that made off with the angel chick huh...looks like a chump to me.* of course Goldy wouldn't hear the voice, only Sonnelion's. "you've gotten stronger since I let met ya...I'll give ya that." Goldy walked to his pod, but not before pointing his finger and blasting the namekian merchant. "We'll meet again soon. Don't know what the hell that 'Nex' crap means, but," Goldy stared at Sonnelion, "come find me when you're ready, I'm satisfied today, so run along little loser." and so Goldy left in his pod into space. Sonnelion could only look at the dead body of the only merchant of the three that he actually trusted, and gave his respects.
Just Another Tuesday
No matter if you had a brief encounter with Goldy or not, you are once again approached by the last surviving Merchant. He informs you with great humor that the Golden power was 'Emperor' Goldy, who has taken control of the Hub: the largest, wealthiest planet. You also learn that these battles are quite common.
1 Paragraph
300 PL
The last remaining merchant shows up with his ship, this merchant is a Changling. Sonnelion was standing over the grave of the Namekian merchant when the changling merchant walked to him. "So you know the 'emperor' of the hub eh? Ain't that quite a surprise." Sonnelion didn't bother looking at him. "You may be interested to know that battle like what you went into...are actually quite common around these parts." Sonnelion was not really surprised to hear that. "Not surprising. These asteroids do seem to be filled with lots of scum and Villainy afterall." was all he said in reply.
Lessons Learned?
The final Merchant refuses to pay you a penny. These "Merchants" are no better than the pirates that have been plaguing the solar system. Face it, you've been conned. Fraud like this is very common in Arlia. You part with this shyster stronger (and maybe a little cynical).

+400 PL AND Street Smarts!!!
Sonnelion was walking back to his ship when he was suddenly surrounded by pirates. He narrowed his eyes, he had a feeling on who orchestrated this one. He quickly did a spin attack with his sword which killed the pirates around him with ease. He began walking towards the last merchant ship but came across a lot of pirates along the way. He made ki turrets which made quick work of them. He continued his walk to the last merchant ship, and some pirates tried to jump him, but he used his chaos arms to grab them by the heads, and crushed their skulls.
After those pirates were dealt with he continued his walk to the ship, now on the walk way. 2 flying pirates tried to get the jump on him from above, he quickly used ki grapple to grab one of them and slam the guy into the other. Then he used ki grapple on his sword to proceed to cut those 2 flying pirates in half and then placed the sword back onto his back. He then continued walking up the metal walkway leading to the ship. 5 pirates were up ahead in the walk way off to the sides, shooting at him.
He used his ki turrets to kill them with ease. He finally made it to the ship, only to find it closed. "were you expecting payment ignorant monkey? Too bad." Sonnelion stared blankly at the ship which began to fly away. "no, I'm here to take your life Pirate." he then fired a ton of ki blasts which went surrounded the merchant ship. "Die." he closed his hand and the Hellzone Grenade proceeded to destroy the merchant ship. The scummy changling merchant died inside due to the bombardment. Sonnelion walked away and flew off to his ship as the hellzone grenade destroyed the Merchant ship.

Sonnelion used blink to get in the dragon's face again but before the dragon could land a claw on the Half Saiyan, Sonnelion managed a gut punch and then kicked the dragon in the chest which knocked the alien dragon out of the artificial atmosphere, thus knocking it into space.
Deal!?!?!
Your efforts have clearly changed the tide of the battle. This contribution is rewarded with a message from the other side. No matter how many times you've switched sides, they offer you a deal far beyond what is believable. Both sides are clearly loaded beyond belief, so it just might be possible. Do you trust these people?

Sonnelion turned and faced the alien pirate ships which were still attacking the city, but had clearly noticed that he had turned the tide of battle. Sonnelion got a message from both the pirates and the merchants. Were they both trying to bribe him? They truly are foolish, he doesn't trust either side, so he decided to just be his own side and fought to defend the civilians, the ones that had no power to fight back. He watched as both sides fought each other and just stood ready to defend the civilians if need be.
He decided to at least look at the offers though, looks like they were both trying to bribe him with tons of money. Thing is, he ain't that desperate. He blasted any pirates that tried to attack the civilians. He figured that he may just use the Harbinger to transport the civilians away from this place after the battle to the Razor Force moon base, least there he could give them shelter until they figure out a better living arrangement. So till then he just watched the battle and deflected any stray shots fired at the civilians in the mean time.
The End?
The battle is over, but at what cost? A ruler dead, and another injured. Out of nowhere, you see a pod coming. A Golden pod. As it closes in, you sense that this pod contains 200,000 PL. Stay and fight or run and leave. Goldy's 200k and he has no tolerance for weaklings. Another Merchant does not make it.
GO 3 Paragraphs OR STAY 4 Paragraphs and you must be 100k+
+400 PL OR 700 PL AND Secret Knowledge: Goldy
The battle was over, Sonnelion made sure no civilians got caught in the crossfire and got them on his ship, The Harbinger. He noticed one of the merchant ships leaving so he threw and landed a tracking chip on it so he'd be able to catch up with that guy later. The other Merchant stayed and so he and that guy were looking around the rubble. This merchant was a Namekian and is the most trustworthy of the group in all honesty. He and the Namekian merchant were trying to find any survivors to get to the Harbinger. He actually explained this to the guy to which the Namekian nodded in understanding.
Sonnelion and the Namekian sensed a presence headed their way. Sonnelion narrowed his eyes under his mask, he knows this signature. "Goldy..." he growled in anger. The Namekian looked surprised that Sonnelion knew who it was. "How do you know 'Emperor' Goldy?" the Namekian asked, Sonnelion looked at him. "So he's calling himself that now huh, figured he was gonna betray Ynrab, what with him killing me when I was just trying to negotiate peace." he spat showing his aura and causing the rubble to float. "calm yourself, boy." The Namekian told Sonnelion trying to contemplate the information, this man knows Goldy?! Goldy Killed this man?
Sonnelion took off his mask, showing just how utterly pissed he is right now. "Goldy...I've been wanting to meet him again," he growled out showing he held a great grudge against Goldy. The Namekian Merchant shook his head. "you must run, I'll hold him off, you're not ready for him yet" Sonnelion stared at the Namkian. "no, I must see this through." Sonnelion declared showing just how much he wanted his closure. He had to know, what happened to Azael. He wanted, no, needed, to know what happened to her after he died in that war.
Sonnelion stared as the pod came down, and crashed near them. Sonnelion had his hand on his blade, ready to fight if need be. The Gold pod opened, and the familiar face of Goldy came out. "Goldy, didn't expect to see me again did you," he asked with a slight growl. Goldy looked at him, and began to laugh "ah man what happened to yer face, was my power just that overwhelming to ya? what, not happy I made off with the bitch?" Sonnelion glared at him, his power flaring which showed his anger, he brought his blade out and pointed it. "I declare Nex Sacramentum. I, Sonnelion will have revenge." he learned the words and meaning from the Visions in his mind. The voice in his mind spoke as well *this is the guy that made off with the angel chick huh...looks like a chump to me.* of course Goldy wouldn't hear the voice, only Sonnelion's. "you've gotten stronger since I let met ya...I'll give ya that." Goldy walked to his pod, but not before pointing his finger and blasting the namekian merchant. "We'll meet again soon. Don't know what the hell that 'Nex' crap means, but," Goldy stared at Sonnelion, "come find me when you're ready, I'm satisfied today, so run along little loser." and so Goldy left in his pod into space. Sonnelion could only look at the dead body of the only merchant of the three that he actually trusted, and gave his respects.
Just Another Tuesday
No matter if you had a brief encounter with Goldy or not, you are once again approached by the last surviving Merchant. He informs you with great humor that the Golden power was 'Emperor' Goldy, who has taken control of the Hub: the largest, wealthiest planet. You also learn that these battles are quite common.
1 Paragraph
300 PL
The last remaining merchant shows up with his ship, this merchant is a Changling. Sonnelion was standing over the grave of the Namekian merchant when the changling merchant walked to him. "So you know the 'emperor' of the hub eh? Ain't that quite a surprise." Sonnelion didn't bother looking at him. "You may be interested to know that battle like what you went into...are actually quite common around these parts." Sonnelion was not really surprised to hear that. "Not surprising. These asteroids do seem to be filled with lots of scum and Villainy afterall." was all he said in reply.
Lessons Learned?
The final Merchant refuses to pay you a penny. These "Merchants" are no better than the pirates that have been plaguing the solar system. Face it, you've been conned. Fraud like this is very common in Arlia. You part with this shyster stronger (and maybe a little cynical).

+400 PL AND Street Smarts!!!
Sonnelion was walking back to his ship when he was suddenly surrounded by pirates. He narrowed his eyes, he had a feeling on who orchestrated this one. He quickly did a spin attack with his sword which killed the pirates around him with ease. He began walking towards the last merchant ship but came across a lot of pirates along the way. He made ki turrets which made quick work of them. He continued his walk to the last merchant ship, and some pirates tried to jump him, but he used his chaos arms to grab them by the heads, and crushed their skulls.
After those pirates were dealt with he continued his walk to the ship, now on the walk way. 2 flying pirates tried to get the jump on him from above, he quickly used ki grapple to grab one of them and slam the guy into the other. Then he used ki grapple on his sword to proceed to cut those 2 flying pirates in half and then placed the sword back onto his back. He then continued walking up the metal walkway leading to the ship. 5 pirates were up ahead in the walk way off to the sides, shooting at him.
He used his ki turrets to kill them with ease. He finally made it to the ship, only to find it closed. "were you expecting payment ignorant monkey? Too bad." Sonnelion stared blankly at the ship which began to fly away. "no, I'm here to take your life Pirate." he then fired a ton of ki blasts which went surrounded the merchant ship. "Die." he closed his hand and the Hellzone Grenade proceeded to destroy the merchant ship. The scummy changling merchant died inside due to the bombardment. Sonnelion walked away and flew off to his ship as the hellzone grenade destroyed the Merchant ship.
